Christensen Arms MPR 6.5mm Creedmoor 22-inch Modern Precision Rifle

The Christensen Arms MPR 6.5mm Creedmoor 22-inch Modern Precision Rifle is a sub-7-pound chassis gun that doesn’t sacrifice accuracy for weight. At $2199.99, it delivers a carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel, folding stock, and 20 MOA rail in a package that carries like a hunting rifle but shoots like a match gun. If you’re building a lightweight long-range rig for PRS, backcountry hunting, or steel out to 1200 yards, this is the platform to start with.

Key Features

• Carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel: Why it matters — reduces weight by nearly 40% over a steel barrel while maintaining stiffness for consistent sub-MOA groups. The 22-inch 6.5 Creedmoor profile gives you enough velocity to push 140-grain ELD-Ms past 2700 fps without the bulk of a 26-inch tube.
• TriggerTech trigger: Why it matters — adjustable from 2.5 to 4 pounds with zero creep and a crisp break. No take-up, no over-travel. This is the same trigger used by PRS shooters who can’t afford a bad pull on a stage timer.
• Folding stock with carbon fiber comb: Why it matters — the stock folds to the right for transport in a 30-inch case, and the comb adjusts for cheek weld with or without a scope. At 6.9 pounds, you can hump this rifle up a mountain and still have energy for the shot.
• 20 MOA rail: Why it matters — gives you enough elevation travel in a standard scope to reach 1000+ yards without maxing out your turret. Pair with a 5-25x and you’re dialing wind calls at a mile.
• Sub-MOA guarantee: Why it matters — Christensen Arms backs this rifle to shoot three rounds into 0.999 MOA or better at 100 yards. If it doesn’t, they fix it. That’s not marketing; that’s a warranty.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the shooter who wants one gun for PRS production class, backcountry elk, and long-range steel. It’s for the guy who’s tired of dragging a 12-pound chassis rifle through the woods and wants a 6.9-pound platform that still holds 0.5 MOA with handloads. It’s also for the new long-range shooter who wants a do-it-all rifle without buying three different guns.

Pros / Cons

• Pros: Unreal weight savings without accuracy loss; folding stock for compact storage; TriggerTech trigger is match-ready out of the box; 20 MOA rail saves you $100 on a base; backed by a real sub-MOA guarantee.
• Cons: The carbon fiber barrel heats faster than a heavy steel contour—you’ll see POI shift after 5-6 rapid shots. This isn’t a mag-dump gun; it’s a precision tool. Also, the stock doesn’t have an adjustable length of pull, which may bother shooters with shorter arms.

Comparison

The MPR beats both competitors on weight and price. The Zev Mesa has a longer barrel for a slight velocity edge, but you’re carrying an extra 1.5 pounds. The Geissele is a tank—great for bench shooting, but not a field rifle.
